India is the heart disease capital!
According to an interview given to a news agency, cardiologist Dr. Ashok Seth has given some arguments regarding the increasing cases of heart attacks in the country. On the issue of heart attacks among the youth, Dr. Ashok says, compared to other countries, India has a higher incidence of heart attacks. The rate of seizures is high. If 50% of heart attacks occur worldwide, 20% of them occur in India. According to experts, there has been a 200 percent increase in heart attacks in the country in the last 10 years, which is not normal. Heart attack is currently the number 1 disease in India, affecting the youth.
India ranks first in the world in terms of diabetes? Youth in danger?
The biggest reason for increasing heart disease among youth is their poor lifestyle. This includes some factors like diabetes. India also ranks first in the world in terms of diabetes. The incidence of high cholesterol is also highest among people in India. The cases of high blood pressure are also highest in India. According to cardiologists, heart attack is a lifestyle disease. Due to the bad lifestyle of today's youth, these three things surround them at an early age, which leads to heart attack. Apart from this, doctors say that smoking habit is also a major cause of heart disease. Smoking among women has also increased more than ever before, which is affecting them in other ways including heart attacks.
